Women's Spiritual Retreats

OMG! Where do I begin? This retreat far surpassed my expectations! I am so grateful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. It was so down to earth, taught full of wisdom and very well planned out. The workshops were all top notch and made me feel safe. And I love your Aussie, Bella.

I made the right decision to come to Western Spirit’s retreat. The workshop “Choosing Love Over Fear” provided a strong foundation for the week and I found myself coming back to it often. I loved the non-judgmental support and leadership. I am so grateful to have met both of you.

From my first email inquiry to making my reservation deposit, they answered all my questions. Their website was full of all the answers I needed to make a decision. Marian’s gifts and experience with the workshops provided me the perfect opportunity for my personal growth. Garrett’s knowledge and insights enhanced the outdoor experiences so much. Saying “thank you” doesn’t seem adequate enough for how much my life has positively changed through five days with Marian and Garrett!

Thank you for an amazing week! I am truly grateful for all you do.

Meeting you and spending the week at Western Spirit was a true gift. You both have a beautiful spirit. I will always remember this vacation retreat and my spirit is forever thankful!

This retreat was a great program and way better than I expected.  I learned so many important things.  The workshops provided so many great points to incorporate into my life.  I really enjoyed the hike/climb up Bell Rock that pushed me to do what I thought I couldn’t.  The retreat totally changed my way of thinking about myself.

It was an amazing experience and I am so grateful for everything. I felt very safe in all the workshops. The outdoor experiences were wonderful and the scenery was gorgeous. The retreat exceeded my expectations by 100%!

I am so grateful for Marian & Garrett! The time I spent with them was life-changing. Marian’s workshops were incredibly healing and she was so invested in my spiritual journey. She taught me to be kinder and gentler with myself. The retreat went way beyond my expectations.

The retreat was great and perfect.  Just what I needed.  Marian and Garrett are so fun-loving – the dynamic duo!  Marian’s workshops are presented with love and kindness, filled with intuition and knowledge.  Safety – value – power!  Choose love!

The retreat was excellent and exceeded my expectations; it was so positive.  So glad I chose this retreat and I’m very grateful and happy to have met Marian and Garrett.  It was such an enlightening experience!  The workshops were “right up my alley”.  The views from our hike up Bell Rock were breath-taking! Everything was excellent!

The retreat was great!  I loved the intuition workshop the best. I learned to experience my spirituality with more vigor, which then positively impacts all aspects of my life.

The retreat week was such an incredible experience, one that will be with me for the rest of my life. Thank you for being a part of my spiritual journey. The workshops were amazing and helped me see myself more clearly and what I need to heal. Sedona and the Grand Canyon are breathtaking and a once-in-a-lifetime experience. My retreat was so much better than I expected and the combination of the workshops and outdoor adventures was amazing.

The retreat was amazing! There were so many topics covered and valuable tools introduced to me through the workshops. And the outdoor adventures were a perfect compliment to what I was learning this week. It far exceeded my expectations and I want to come back again.

Everything was wonderful! You have helped me see my blessings. I am a stronger and happier person thanks to the blessings and lessons I received from you.

This retreat was above and beyond what I came for.  I learned tools that I will use forever.  The outdoor activities were perfect (in spite of the rain) and very informative.  I learned to trust Spirit and my purpose in life.

The week was great from start to finish, a wonderful experience for mind and soul. It was a wonderful week, exactly what I needed. You provided me with the tools I need to continue to grow. Sedona is absolutely beautiful and I enjoyed every one of the outdoor activities.

I am blessed to have shared the week with you. You have made my journey that much more exciting. I really can’t quite express my gratitude for both of you and the work you do. Marian is such a bright light and full of love. And Garrett is so knowledgeable and passionate about nature and Sedona. I knew right after our introductions that I would grow and see and feel all of what I needed this week. I understand now that we are all one. Thank you for sharing your love and light. May our paths cross often!

The retreat was very eye-opening and an experience I can take home with me and apply every day. The workshops helped me get more in tune with myself. The outdoor activities were awesome and wonderful! I learned to breathe through my feelings and that I don’t always have to be in “warrior” mode. My expectations for this week-long retreat were greatly exceeded.

I learned so much at this retreat. You made me feel safe and comfortable. It was a great experience and I learned so much about myself and my relationships. The beauty and energy of Sedona is wonderful and Garrett did a great job leading us around. The love and kindness you shared with us was above and beyond my expectations. This week’s guidance will live on with me forever. I look forward to staying in touch with you both.

This retreat was by far one of the most impactful experiences I have ever had! It far exceeded my hopes and expectations. The workshops were very thought out and the outdoor activities so much fun. I learned to choose love over fear and surrender to the Universe.

I thought I came for one thing, but I left with so much more! I released a lot of pain and made room for joy and love. This retreat taught me so much! Thank you both for the love, healing and laughter!

My retreat was the best. I learned so much from both of you (Marian & Garrett), from your workshops, and from your relationship with each other (and your dog, Bella). The workshops took me through a spiritual awakening. The beauty of Sedona and the Grand Canyon was breathtaking and I felt such gratitude for being there. I learned that love is pure, simple and warm.  It was such a great week!

The retreat was all I hoped it would be, a good balance of workshops with emotional and spiritual work, while enjoying the beauty of Sedona and the Grand Canyon. I got a lot more out of the workshops than I was expecting. I now have the tools to connect with and develop the Spirit within me.

The retreat was much greater and richer than I expected. The workshops were so important to my healing and the outdoor activities were fun and exciting; the Grand Canyon hike amazing! I learned to breathe, to feel and to love myself unconditionally. This retreat far surpassed my expectations.

The retreat facilitators are amazing and very connected to Creator Source and the land here. Enlightening would best describe Marian’s workshops. I could spend even more time together here.

On a scale of 1 to 10, this retreat is a 10! I experienced a great sense of renewal – spiritually, emotionally, mentally and of gratitude. Marian’s workshops are very deep and powerful, and she provides a very personal involvement of commitment and leadership. I loved Garrett’s hikes, knowledge of local history and storytelling. Marian and Garrett “knocked” this retreat out of the park. I feel so blessed to have met both of you and to have shared in such a rich, awakening, heart-warming experience! Thank you for the gift of yourselves. I will always be grateful.

The retreat was a wise investment of time and money that I consider well spent. The entire experience was a great balance of valuable workshops and outdoor activities. The vortex hike around Bell Rock was so peaceful for me. I learned to accept what is in my life and give myself grace.

Thank you for this wonderful getaway. I really enjoyed my time with you!
